Commencement is finally here! We’re so excited for the Community Service Officers and Marketing & Events Student Assistants graduating!🙌
CONGRATULATIONS to all of the CPP graduates! 🎓
From May 11th through May 17th, we pause to honor and remember the brave men and women in law enforcement who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to others, while also recognizing those who continue to serve their communities each and every day.
This week serves as a reminder of the courage, dedication, and selflessness carried by law enforcement professionals across our nation. Behind every badge is a person who willingly answers the call to protect others, often placing the needs and safety of their communities before their own.
As we remember the fallen, we also extend our deepest gratitude to the officers, deputies, dispatchers, professional staff, and public safety personnel who continue to serve with integrity, compassion, and unwavering commitment. Your sacrifices, resilience, and dedication do not go unnoticed.
To all members of law enforcement, thank you for your service, your strength, and your continued commitment to keeping our communities safe. We honor those we have lost, support those who continue the mission, and stand united in remembrance and gratitude.#calpolypomona #calpolypomonapolicedepartment #nationalpoliceweek
